Palms Place Condos Ready to Close - Resale Units Now Available

During the month of March both the much anticipated Palms Place and Trump Tower will be closing on their condo hotel units. In Palms Place, which is a smaller boutique project catering to hot young celebrities, the demand for resale units is expected to be higher than the supply.

When the Palms Place originally offered their condo hotel suites for purchase to the public in 2004, they were snapped up by hotel regulars. Frustrated Palms patrons who were not among the lucky few to secure a unit drifted to the Hard Rock, the other hotel catering to the young and trendy, only to be later disappointed when that project was scrapped in a sale to the Morgan's Hotel Group.

Now the Palms Place tower is finished and has finally opened the doors to its first luxury condo residents, including rapper Eminem, wrestler Hulk Hogan, and singer Jessica Simpson. Palms Place is a 599 unit boutique project with a mix of fully furnished 600-square-foot studio units and 1,200-square-foot one-bedroom suites, while the more exclusive clients own penthouses on the top four floors. Palms Place is associated with the Palms Hotel and Casino which boasts the city's most popular nightclubs, arena and a PlayBoy Club.

Closings will be progressing during the month of March on the condo hotel suites, with only a small fraction expected to be put up for resale contrary to condo hotel projects like the MGM Residences where over 150 units are currently on the market.

But a few over-leveraged purchasers are expected to be offering their Palms Place units for sale as they come to closing. There are currently about half a dozen units that are available with prices starting in the high $500s. With the Las Vegas homes market finally picking up momentum again in spite of the national housing bust, none of these units are projected to last long as the word spreads.

In the meantime, down the street at Trump Tower the first closings will also be going on during March for those who are looking for immediate possession of a Las Vegas condo hotel in a quieter atmosphere in keeping with Trump name. The Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas will contain 880 studio units and 352 one-bedroom condominiums and 50 suites of one, two, or three bedrooms on the top five floors.

Other popular condo hotel projects that will not be finished until late 2009 are the MGM City Center and the Cosmopolitan Resort Hotel and Casino. Both projects are located right on the center Strip next door to the Bellagio Hotel and are currently selling preconstruction.
